Abstract

A backboard panel encompassing a large central section, comprising of baseball bats equally spaced horizontally and parallel to each other. With a parallel rebound horizontal board directly above the central section of bats, and a second horizontal rebound parallel board directly below the central section comprising the bats.

The backboard panel is kept vertical by being supported by the rear support pipes, bolted to the rectangular male plate plug. And said rectangular male plate bolted directly to the backboard panel.

Description

A backboard panel incorporating on its surface parts that allow for the invention to be known as the all-plastic Super Fielder Practice Apparatus. Inventor reserves the right to change materials if he so chooses in the future and also the space distance between bats is open to change. The primary object of the invention is to develop quick fielding reactions for baseball players.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

In the accompanying drawings are illustrated the key parts that embody the Super Fielder Practice Apparatus. [0002]
FIG. 1 is the front view elevation of the backboard panel, with combination of bats and rebound boards incorporated. [0003]
FIG. 2 is a side view showing the rectangular male plate connecting to the backboard and the supporting plastic pipe frame.[0004]
Section AA FIG. 1 is an enlarged view of backboard panel, comprising the flat rebound board, and horizontal bat [0005] 1 a, and horizontal bat 1 b. The radius point of 1 a being the edge of the backboard panel, while that of bat 1 b, the radius point is ¼ of radius distance to the left of 1 a bats radius point and approximately 2½″ below.
Section BB FIG. 2. also an enlarged view of the backboard, showing the rectangular plate male plug engaging the pipe support bracing and secured in place by the plastic bolt. [0006]
